I an only go so far back as to the 1970's so I'm going with my memory of people who had INT's.

Let's see... Taylor vs niners but heck, he only had 1 or two post season picks. Not him.

Last 20 years goes from 1990 to now... so 1990 SB teams we went through the Bears, Niners and Buffalo... Collins had a pick vs Bears but short return. No turnovers via the air vs the nineres, and no picks vs Buffalo.

Collins is out.

So, 2000 we had Vikings 41-0 game and Eagles.

1 has to be Sehorn.

thinking.........

Others won't be linebackers.... I'm thinking safety or CB.

For some reason Sam Garnes screams at me. I can hear Summeral's voice saying intercepted by Garnes.....

And my last guess..

Wow this is tough. Philipi Sparks.... *EDITED. Everson Walls played for us in 1990 and he had a load of picks for Dallas before he came over. Cross off Sparks, go with Walls.

I think I got 2 of 3.

Yes Similiar, after Strahan lost weight he was much more agile -same bull rusher mentality-but with cat like reflexes. I will never forget the sb42 play where strahan's 270+ lbs was in mid-air with a death grip on Brady's Jersey.

Well if you go down your roster you'll find that 2 are easy. One used to play on the same team as his brother and the other plays his brother twice a season. Manning we know. The last one is the hard one, I'll give you one hint on that, he does have the same last name as his brother.

In Giants history, 47 men who played for the Giants had a brother or brothers who played in the NFL.

Barber and Gogolak are easy, most know about that, but did you know that Mel Tripllett's brother Bill also played in the NFL?

Joe Orduna--not 100% sure on this one. ok ok--Don Herman, Orduna rushed for his td. The two combined for the 14 points scored that day. Norm Snead was QB. Your teaching me alot, but I had to work for that one. I'm wrong again 34 points scored that day for gmen</P>

I think you're right on Herrman</P>

Let's up the ante.....what Giant WR caught the first ever TD pass we had against the Houston Oilers?</P>

The reason I recall this is because it was our second to last game in Yankee Stadium. We played 2 there in 73 before moving to the Yale Bowl that season. Thought I heard somewhere Steinbrenner wanted us out. Icould never confirm that though. Any of you guys ever heard that? I know the construction began in Yankee Stadium as soon as the Yankees season was over that year [1973]</P>

Got a quick story for you guys

Went to the game Sunday, just brutal, but it was the first time @ the new stadium for me and my friend and I went into the legacy room (I think that's what it's called). Sort of a mini Giant Hall Of Fame.

Anyway, I see a guy getting ushered in with a woman and a security guard. It was Frank Gifford. I tapped him on the back but he didn't recognize me. lol

What are the odds on that? You go into this mini museum and you see one of the greatest Giants ever in person.

Frank Gifford in the legacy room. They should've just laminated him and kept him in the corner.

#11 has been a very popular QB number at all levels of football for my entire life. So guessing #11 is a QB is weak sauce IMO.

That's Jack Concannon... and, Butkus is, I guarantee you, telling him to get his *** in gear* and score some points.* Bears had a great D in those days, and a woeful offense.</P>

hahahahhhahaa...Zimmy looking at that picture and reading what you wrote is hilarious.....

I guarantee you thats exactly what Butkus is saying.......

that D was nasty

"He used to say to me things like, ‘You know, Simms, if you want them to listen, you’ve got to show them,’ "In other words, you’ve got to play well....."

love this quote from Simms about Parcells......we could use a little of that right about now......

Name these 2 Chicago Bears. One is quite easy..........the other , not so much</p>

Z</p>

Butkus of course......and the QB .....cant remember his name....but I remember him I know 67 in the background is George Seals</p>

67 is OL George Seals [thought 67 and no. 29 being identified was bit to much to ask] nice job YA No. 11 was a fairlygood QB for the Bears</p>

Z</p>

Then who is 76 in the background behind ****? (I have no clue btw) Gotta say though, guessing that #11 is the QB is pretty weak sauce. [:p] Jim McMahon maybe.......I kid. McMahon would be wearing sunglasses. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJNC3dgreaU</p>

Not even sure that is no. 76 in the background</p>

No. 11 is a well known name from the Bears of yesteryear.........not McMahon. Before his time</p>

Well since nobody answered it, I'll give you the answer now.

The 4 players on the Giants currently that have brothers who play or have played in the NFL are:

Eli....Peyton obviously
Sinorice Moss....I'm sure you have heard of Santana
Shawn Andrews....played with his brother Stacy when on the Eagles
Michael Johnson....his brother is Reggie Brown, that one was tough

Turner sounds good, SEC. I never would have remembered. He was a good athlete and good size... whatever happened to him?</P>

I could have sworn Meggett was our leader one year...with about 38 receptions... I thought we had it on here last preseason when I was researching years that we spread the passes around alot and the leader for the year had a very low number... I was predicting that our '09 receivers would be like that... would never have believed Smith would get 107. I predicted him to have around 58.</P>

I also remember that we had a year that the leader had 22 receptions. I'll need to look for that again, because I forget... but, isn't that an incredibly low number... only averaging about 1-1/2 passes per game?</P>

and to my surprise he came across these.......

these were my fathers......he got them for me when they came out...I remember him saying he would give them to me when he thought I would appreciate them.........he collected them one by one from the place who gave them out back then......I was very young when he got them....

I had forgotten all about them until about an hour ago.......I cant believe the condition they are in.....

so my question is....

who remembers these?

when were they available ?

and where were they available?

they were pretty popular at the time......

above them Ill type what is written on the bottom of them....

thought you guys would enjoy seeing these.

OMG, YA... I have the same pics... only, I haye to admit to you, some of mine are signed by theplayers. Aunt Jean had them framed and gave them to us for my son, David, around 1969. When we moved here 20 years ago David packed them in a box and I haven't seen them since. I could swear we also have a Joe Morrison one, too. I remember only some were autographed cuz she said she didn't see all the guys.</P>

I don't remember when they came out at all, or where they were available. I don't remember Jean telling us where they came from. First time I ever remember seeing them was when Jean gave them to us, I'll have to find them ... someplace in storage. Thank you... it was a real shocker when I saw them.</P>

beautiful piecesgreat pics,ya,but brings back a semi-sad memeory...

back in 1981,hess also did a series of sketches like that,that came out just before the pre-season(talk about good timing,1st playoff appearance in 18 years!).the players were-simms,shirk,carson,martin,gray,and taylor(it was originally going to be billy talyor,but he was cut,so they did a little air brushing and,wala!-LT).had them all autographed and dated from going to the valerie roast fund dinners in the early to mid 80's.....now the sad part-had them all framed on my wall in my apartment in newark,de,at the time-i was 25-and when i came home from work one evening,my drug addict roomie(didn't know he was a druggie until after he left), had stolen EVERYTHING of value in my home-my sega,tv,stereo,certain books and other memorabilia.still ticks me off even to think about...every so often i try to hit the seach engnes to try to find the guy-it would be worth it to find where he lives then go there and beat him senseless![:@]

that is a horrible story rbc.......

as bad as you want to mangle that dude.......I can all but guarantee you that the Karma Police have already dealt with him

I remember the Hess sketches.......my son had them all....not signed of course....but he had them.....

im going to call him right now and ask him if he still has them.......he always has doubles of everything he has ever collected......just the way he is.....kinda smart actually.....

if he does have them....you and I should pull a couple strings ......and go to a couple signings and get a few signed and framed and back on your wall for nostalgia sake......

or ill just do it and send them to ya ;)

That bites, RBC. Maybe he's a rich dude now. Your property gave him the opportunity to get more drugs. He was arrested, did some time, and came out a new man with enlightened ideas... He made millions, thanks to you. What a good man!</P>

On the other hand, he may have OD'd and is nothing but a memory.</P>

Either way, you might never know.</P>

I don't know why I never knew of the first series of prints before Aunt Jean gave them to David, yet my mom always went to Shell in the 50's and 60's. Then, I never knew about Hess' prints in the 80's either, and I used to go there, too. I did get a lot of the Giant glasses that Hess had, back in the late 70's, early 80's? They are also a memory.</P>

Checked with David... either he or I havethe signed prints in a box in storage. He remembers that they were definitely signed... so, Jean brought them to the players for that. Now I have to find them... ugghh... hundreds of boxes in storage.</P>

Well I don't see a 61. I see a 60. I can't tell if that is 86 or 90. However, in 86 Brad Benson wore #60. That isn't Benson. So that would be Eric Moore. #61 on that season's team was Bob Kratch and in 86 #61 was Chris Godfrey I think.

I had to confirm the sweater color to put this to rest in my own mind. SB#21 vs. Broncos. Parcells wore grey sweater.</P>

Love this pic thought you guys might enjoy it who is the player with just the number 3 showing?</p>

I think I know but lets see what the gang here thinks it is</p>

Z</p>

</p>

How about Greg Larson?</p>

That is a good pic, and over on the far right... I see you eying some babe in the stands.</p>

</p>

could be Greg Larson Z I had someone else in mind</p>

btw yes I was a eyeing hottie in the stands lol no harm no foul</p>

Z</p>

</p>

who is it, SEC? Larson, #53, was the only guy I could remember with a 3. Don't remember exactly what he looked like, </p>

Im pretty sure thats Bookie Bolin.......O lineman out of Ole Miss

not positive.....but thats the name that came to my mind when I saw the pic....

amazing pic by the way......I cant stop staring at it
I'm not positive gang......but I thought it was Bookie Bolin also. He would fit this time frame also. I vaguely can picture Greg Larson"s face and that does not appear to be him
